Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy for Severe Hyperhidrosis: Impact of Restrictive Denervation on Compensatory Sweating  Johannes Schmidt, MD, PhD, Falk Georges Bechara, MD, Peter Altmeyer, MD, PhD, Hubert Zirngibl, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 81, Issue 3, Pages 1048-1055 (March 2006) DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2005.09.046 Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 Evolution of postoperative quality of life by SF-36: male patients (n = 51). The index groups displayed are physical fitness (PF), vitality (V), social fitness (SF), and psychological fitness (PSF). Normal values are taken from a group 30 to 39 years of age.

Fig 2 Evolution of postoperative quality of life by SF-36: female patients (n = 127). The index groups displayed are physical fitness (PF), vitality (V), social fitness (SF), and psychological fitness (PSF). Normal values are taken from a group 30 to 39 years of age.

Fig 3 Evolution of postoperative quality of life by SF-36: effect of compensatory sweating (9 of 51 male patients). The index groups displayed are vitality (V), social fitness (SF), and psychological fitness (PSF). The differences between patients with (n = 9) and without (n = 42) compensatory sweating are pointed out (4 dropouts at month 24). Normal values are taken from a group 30 to 39 years of age.

Fig 4 Evolution of postoperative quality of life by SF-36: effect of compensatory sweating (14 of 127 female patients). The index groups displayed are vitality (V), social fitness (SF), and psychological fitness (PSF). The differences between patients with (n = 14) and without (n = 113) compensatory sweating are pointed out (1 dropout at month 6, 4 dropouts at month 24). Normal values are taken from a group 30 to 39 years of age.
